Last Minute Vacation


Most families plan out a vacation months in advance, but not the Antrikin Family. We were thinking of going on a ski trip on Spring Break, but not everyone could make it then. Most families would just push the date back. Our family takes a different approach let's just go now. So we all checked our calendars and decided Tuesday night we would be leaving Thursday to go on a family ski trip. I really like to just pick up and go like this. Jonathan on the other hand is a planner so he really stresses out when we go on trips with my family. I must admit he is getting better.

We went to Pagosa Springs, CO. It was beautiful. The drive was really long. We broke it up into two days and stayed the night half way there. Joel was sick the entire time. He started running a fever the day we left and was still running a fever when we returned. He had a virus and got a double ear infection from it. He is starting to feel better now. Jacksen and Jennah both went to ski school and did very well. They only went the first day and the second day they both went with us. It was so much fun! Jennah would try to talk all the way down the mountain. Her constant talking would distract her and she would get to going to fast and we would have to tell her to slow it down.

The weather was beautiful. The sun was shining so it wasn't too cold. Then the last day it snowed. The kids are not used to Colorado snow. The flakes were huge Joel had a blast watching it fall.
I will post more pictures when I have them developed.
